SRCAR Vice President of Government Affairs Gene Wunderlich cited Washington's experience and long history of service to the region including his tenure on both Murrieta and Temecula City Councils, serving a Mayor of both cities, and his appointment to the Supervisor seat vacated by Senator Jeff Stone.

"I've known Chuck for 25 years," says Wunderlich. "As relocated neighbors to this region, we used to commiserate how our children would probably go away to college and not return to the valley, because back then that's what kids did. Opportunities were limited. Today, I am proud to say, our children not only returned to the Valley but own their own small businesses and give back to this community. I give Chuck a lot of credit for helping make that possible through his efforts in guiding our cities to provide the quality of life that our children and grandchildren can thrive in."

The focus of the Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors® is on housing and both Murrieta and Temecula have adopted policies promoting a wide variety of alternatives for our existing and prospective residents. Everything from multi-family and affordable homes to upscale estate and equestrian properties are available with a robust move-up market in the middle. At the same time the cities have maintained enviable records of public safety, prosperity, infrastructure development and job growth. Some of that progress must be attributed directly to Mr. Washington.

During his brief tenure on the Board of Supervisors, Mr. Washington has demonstrated that he brings this same level of engagement to that body, while retaining the transparency, accessibility and accountability that has been his trademark. At the same time he has shown he is not adverse to asking the tough questions that need to be asked about county services and finances.
Riverside County will benefit from the experience and integrity Mr. Washington brings to the job. We are proud to extend the support of the Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors® to 3rd District Supervisor Chuck Washington.
